I don’t think this experiment should be replicated today. The reason being is that the Generation we have today has a different mindset and that the experiment is unethical in my view. In 1961‚ Milgram was able to make the participants agree with the experiment. These results led to people trying out these trails because the participants knew the shock would be painful but not dangerous. With that being said‚ it shows you the mindset of the people during that time. People were laid back and were

to certain scientific experiments‚ thought experiments also involve objects that are not found anywhere in nature. As mentioned earlier in this paper‚ genetically identical mice‚ which were used in an experiment to test whether or not a certain chemical caused lung cancer‚ are not found anywhere in nature — the genetically identical mice are a product of science. In this example‚ the elements of the experiment (the mice) were unnatural‚ yet the conclusion of the experiment yielded significant‚ real-world

The purpose of this experiment is to present a test that helps experimenters determine if the participant either recollect the words presented in the experiment‚ or if the participant is just familiar with this words. The motivation for the participant to conduct this study is to identify the two brain structures that sub-function these structures. For instance‚ when a person is presented one of the words that are presented in this experiment‚ he or she would have to use the memory‚ in order to

The floating egg experiment – How much salt is needed to make an egg float? Aim: To investigate the effects of salt on the density of water (and therefore the ability to float an object in said water) and to find the amount of salt needed to float one regular egg in a glass of water. Research: Internet research shows that adding salt to water increases the density‚ and in turn makes it easier for objects to float. 4-10 teaspoons of salt in 1 glass of water is said to be enough to make one egg

INTRODUCTION The Loftus and Palmer experiment investigated the influence of leading information: visual imagery and leading questions with regards to eyewitness testimony. A research that studies this is the Loftus and Palmer (1974) Experiment. It aims is to investigate how “verb” asked in the question causes construction in one’s memory of that event. Participants will be separated into two groups one control and one test group‚ then both groups will view a video of a car crash. After that‚ the

The aim of this experiment was to replicate the Primacy effect‚ which investigates the effects of ascending and descending performances on attributions of intellectual ability‚ illustrating that individuals’ perception of another individual is influenced by their first impression of that person to the detriment of all subsequent impressions. The design included independent groups‚ and the 46 participants over 16 years old (25 males and 21 females) were chosen through convenience sampling. The latter

Design of Experiments (DOE) Tutorial Design of Experiments (DOE) techniques enables designers to determine simultaneously the individual and interactive effects of many factors that could affect the output results in any design. DOE also provides a full insight of interaction between design elements; therefore‚ it helps turn any standard design into a robust one. Simply put‚ DOE helps to pin point the sensitive parts and sensitive areas in designs that cause problems in Yield. Designers are then

Milgram’s experiment is an experiment which is extremely controversial. Although many believe that this experiment was unethical‚ it was not. This experiment is thought to be unethical as individuals were hurt and there was lying and deceit involved. Therefore‚ many say that an experiment like this is unethical. Furthermore‚ besides for the students being injured‚ the teachers also did as they would develop psychological damage from what they did. Additionally‚ the fact that this experiment was done
